--- Comment #3 from Sebb <se...@apache.org> ---
The documentation problem still exists.

If an attacker manages to replace the sig file with a self-contained signed
file, the release file will not be checked against the sig unless it is
specified.

Agreed it is very unlikely - especially if the sig is downloaded from an ASF
server - but we should not be giving bad advice.
